The Tajik health system is characterized by improving health outcomes over the last 20 years, but also major inefficiencies in health care delivery and large difficulties for people to access affordable essential health care. The benefits package (BP) is a key tool for prioritizing state budget allocations toward health interventions that most effectively enhance health system performance. This ar

Lead-free perovskites (LFPs) are an emergent class of materials with great potential as next-generation candidates for energy and optoelectronic applications, offering a sustainable and non-toxic alternative to their lead-based counterparts. Computational studies play a central role in accelerating the discovery, design, and optimization of these materials by enabling predictive insights into elec

Bayesian optimization is a widely used method for optimizing expensive black-box functions, with Expected Improvement being one of the most commonly used acquisition functions. In contrast, information-theoretic acquisition functions aim to reduce uncertainty about the function’s optimum and are often considered fundamentally distinct from EI. In this work, we challenge this prevailing perspective

Implementing the Internet of Things (IoT) into business models has become an influential catalyst, supporting novel revenue generation, improved operational efficiencies, and competitive dominance. Still, its implementation has been challenged by barriers to technological, organizational, and societal dimensions. The current study utilizes the Fuzzy Decision-Making Trial and Evaluation Laboratory

Godstransporter är en grundläggande förutsättning för samhällsekonomisk utveckling, näringslivets konkurrenskraft och tillgången till varor, men står samtidigt för en betydande andel av Sveriges växthusgasutsläpp. Att minska transporternas klimatpåverkan utan att hämma ekonomisk utveckling är därför en central utmaning. Ökad transporteffektivitet lyfts ofta fram som en nyckelstrategi, men dess potFreight transport is a fundamental prerequisite for socio-economic development, business competitiveness, and the availability of goods, while at the same time accounting for a substantial share of Sweden’s greenhouse gas emissions. Reducing the climate impact of transport without constraining economic development therefore constitutes a central challenge. Improved transport efficiency is often hi

BACKGROUND: Dementia with Lewy Bodies (DLB) is often misdiagnosed or conflated with Alzheimer's Disease (AD) due to overlapping clinical presentations and neuropathological features. The presence of AD-like features correlates with accelerated cognitive decline and a worse overall prognosis. Compared to AD, studies suggest that amyloid uptake in DLB may spare the occipital lobe. This project aims

This paper introduces the comprehensive web-based IWG5 tool to evaluate energy consumption, renovation costs, and environmental impacts for European residential and office building renovations. Developed to support the SET-Plan Implementation Working Group 5 on Energy Efficiency in Buildings, the tool establishes benchmarks across five European climate zones by integrating dynamic building perform

Cells grow by acquiring external resources and transforming them internally, forming new cells as they divide. Metabolic networks focus on the flow of such resources within the cell as they undergo series of biochemical reactions. How population growth emerges from these complex dynamical networks remains unclear. Modeling the emergence of population growth, a central ecological concept, is thus e

Background: Peritoneal carcinomatosis (PC) from colorectal cancer (CRC) is a metastatic condition associated with poor prognosis. Tumor dissemination within the peritoneal cavity is influenced by inflammatory responses, immune activation, and tumor-matrix interactions, particularly following surgical trauma. Cytoreductive surgery (CRS) combined with hyperthermic intraperitoneal chemotherapy (HIPEC

Urbanisation, digitalisation and emerging technologies are reshaping young people’s relationship with the outdoor environment. We investigate how everyday outdoor experiences and spaces support adolescent wellbeing, understood as both feeling good and functioning well. Adolescents, at a pivotal stage in life, are particularly sensitive to environmental factors that influence their wellbeing. We co

Aims: Using a longitudinal approach, the aim of this study was to examine whether baseline engagement in arts and culture was associated with a decline from ‘Good’ to ‘Poor’ health at follow-up. Methods: Self-rated health (SRH) and engagement in six cultural activities among randomly selected Danish adults (⩾15 years) were assessed using data from the Danish Health and Wellbeing Survey in 2019. On

We present a synchronized multisensory dataset for accurate and robust indoor localization: the Lund University Vision, Radio, and Audio (LuViRA) Dataset. The dataset includes color images, corresponding depth maps, inertial measurement unit (IMU) readings, channel response between a 5G massive multiple-input and multiple-output (MIMO) testbed and user equipment, audio recorded by 12 microphones,

Objectives: To report the long-term outcomes from a longitudinal psychosocial study that forms part of the ‘Identification of Men with a genetic predisposition to ProstAte Cancer: Targeted Screening in men at higher genetic risk and controls’ (IMPACT) study. The IMPACT study is a multi-national study of targeted prostate cancer (PrCa) screening in individuals with a known germline pathogenic varia

This chapter examines the evolving landscape of craft and its implications for market exchanges, focusing on the embedded relationships between craft producers and consumers. Craft, characterized as an ideology of work resisting the dominance of industrialization and mass production, has experienced several waves of revival throughout history. While contemporary craft hints at alternative social a

The tazkera (national ID) is Afghanistan’s most important identity document and necessary to receive a variety of government services (e.g. education), employment, or even other identity documents such as passports or driver’s licenses. While the most commonly held identification by Afghans, certain groups own tazkeras far less than do others, especially women and rural, displaced and nomadic popu

Background: Altered metabolism after liver surgery adds complexity topostoperative pain management. Opioids administered via intravenousPatient Controlled Analgesia (PCA) is one of the main alternatives forinitial pain management. Paracetamol is considered potentially dangerousafter liver surgery but used selectively. This study evaluates whether thereis a difference in patient outcome after hepat

Rapid and cost-effective retrieval of endogenous DNA from ancient specimens remains a limiting factor in palaeogenomic research. Many methods have been developed to increase ancient DNA yield, but modifications to existing protocols are often based on personal experience rather than systematic testing. Here, we present a new silica column-based extraction protocol, where optimizations were tested
